Hi is there anyone out there who can help me or has been through a similar experience:
My husband is in prison (since 6.9.12). Rossendales sent him a letter to our home address despite notification of where he was on 28.6.13 stating he had a capital contribution order of £20661.26 in addition to an income Contribution order of £6894 totalling £27555.26. Now this letter sat on my desk for a week before I opened it as I hadn't realised what it was.
My husband was self employed and earned just over £6000 a year. I earn much more. My husband has no capital - in fact he has lots of debts - this was recognised by the judge at the time of sentencing. He moved in with me in June 2011 and we married in July 2012. I have owned my property since 2004. My parents also live here and invested in the property so we have a legal trust agreement. My husband made no contributions to the mortgage which is in my sole name.
According to the capital contribution order my husband has a large amount of equity in my property. This is simply not true. He has no beneficial interest in my property and even I do not have the equity that they have stated. My husband wrote to Rossendales explaining the situation but they have not budged in fact they are threatening court action and bailiffs. I've written to them and sent a copy of the trust agreement but they have quoted reg 25 of the CDS regs 2009 basically saying anything that they can treat my resources as his.
Ive been told that I can't fight this because it's not my debt but I'm having sleepless nights and the final date to pay the debt is tomorrow 26th August.
Please help me.
